Eggs in Maple-Ham Cups image

I have not tried this yet. The recipe came from the Clean Home Journal Website. It is a pretty simple recipe with impressing results. They would be pretty for a brunch.

Time 35m

Yield 12 cups, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons unsalted butter or 2 tablespoons margarine, melted
10 ounces ham, black forest cut slightly thinner than a slice of American Cheese (12 slices of meat total) or 10 ounces virginia smoked ham, cut slightly thinner than a slice of American Cheese (12 slices of meat total)
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill, use 1 1/2 teaspoons or 2 tablespoons chives, if using dried herbs, use 1 1/2 teaspoons
12 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Position one baking rack in the middle of the oven & preheat to 400 degrees F. Using a pastry brush & the melted butter or margarine, generously coat the inside of all 12 cups in a standard-size muffin tin.
  • Fit 1 slice of ham into each cup, pressing down to gently line the cup. The ends will stick up over the edges of the cups before cooking. (The ham shrinks during baking resulting in a more cup-like appearance.).
  • Spoon 1/2 teaspoon of maple syrup into the bottom of each ham cup, followed by 1/2 teaspoon of dill or chives. (If using dried herbs, use 1/8 teaspoon.) Crack 1 egg into each ham cup.
  • Bake until whites are cooked and yolks are firm, about 20 minutes If any large bubbles form on the eggs during baking, pierce them with a toothpick or wooden skewer while they cook.
  • Remove the baking pan from the oven and season eggs with salt and pepper. Using 2 teaspoons or small spatulas, carefully lift the full ham cups out and place them on a serving plate. Garnish with fresh herb sprigs if using. Serve immediately.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my ham cups turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, but the eggs were overcooked and the ham was tough. I was really disappointed because I was looking forward to trying this recipe.

These were good, but not great. The ham was a little dry and the glaze was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a different type of ham.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed these. I'm not a huge fan of ham, but the glaze on these was so good that it made me forget all about that. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the whole thing just came together really well.

I've made these ham cups a few times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. The glaze is the perfect balance of sweet and tangy, and the eggs come out perfectly cooked every time. I love serving these for breakfast or brunch, but they're also great

Oh my, these maple-glazed ham cups are outrageous! They were a huge hit at my last party and everyone raved about them. The combination of sweet and savory is heavenly, and the eggs add a delightful richness. I'll definitely be making these again.
